The claim
大谷翔平選手が「不法移民は出ていくべき」と発言?
Original review summary
A post claimed Ohtani said people who entered the country unlawfully should leave, but the review found that the post came from a baseball parody account and found no reporting that Ohtani made such a statement. It also reports that no such immigration-related comment appeared on Ohtani’s social media accounts as of June 24, 2025.[S1]
Additional context
The claim was tied to protests against the Trump administration’s immigration policy in Los Angeles on June 10, 2025; the review says the post had been reposted more than 9,600 times by June 24. [S1]
